Adding ANSI Color to Print Statements

You can use this header file to easily print in color.

You can set the color of the foreground or background, as well as certain attributes.

Mappings

Key	_
cl	clear(all)

You can run the examples in example.cpp or see below.

cout << fg(r)"Red text" << clendl;

NOTE: clendl is a macro that clears formatting. If you use the regular endl, the formatting will persist.

cout << bg(k)fg(r)"Red text and black background" << clendl;

For those of you who already have a black background:

cout << bg(g)fg(k)"Black text and green background" << clendl;

Nothing fancy.

cout << fg(m)"Magenta text... " << fg(c)"Cyan text" << clendl;

cout << fg(c)"Cyan text... " << at(ul)"Cyan text that's underlined... " << rm(ul)"No longer underlined but still cyan" << clendl;

cout << at(bo)"Bold bold bold... " << rm(bo) "no more bold" << clendl;

cout << at(bk)"Blink " << fg(c)"blink " << bg(g)fg(k)"blink... " << rm(bk)rm(hl)"No blink." << clendl;

cout << fg(m)bg(k)at(bo)"Some text..." << at(hl)"Highlighted text..." << rm(hl) << clendl;

cout << at(dm)"Half-bright as usual... " << rm(dm)"can you tell the difference?" << clendl;
